Set up was confusing for me personally at first but my Mom had it set up & ready to go in 10 minutes. I love that it has the talking feature where if there were someone on your property, whether or not your home, you can speak to them & they can actually speak back which IMO is also great for USPS & other package delivery companies. There are more features than I can even name, including turning a siren or alarm on, turning on a VERY bright light and so much more. I highly recommend this & would definitely purchase again! Thanks much!
